His older brother Jay (Jonathan Tucker) puts a few clues together and does a little detective work to find out the truth about Nate.

But in a recent episode of the Direct TV drama, Nate admits to his brother he didn’t tell him because ‘I really don’t want anybody to know.

Especially their father.

Jay lightens the moment when he says: ‘You don’t think he’ll be cool with it?’

He then lets his brother know he’s got his back: ‘Hey, it’s your life. It’s not for me to say anything.’

Jay also tells Nate he’s sorry that he didn’t feel that he could tell him.

‘Listen to me when I tell you that nothing changes between us – I swear to God.’

But then he says: “Except, you better be on top because you’re my brother and you do the fucking. … You’re my brother and there’s a certain line that needs to be toed.’

Jay adds with loving humor: ‘I always knew you were gay, you got a lot of gay qualities. You;re gentle, you smell delightful, you dress well. If you turn our house into a Palm Springs pool fiesta, I’m moving out.’
